The arrival of All-Star Weekend is definitely a major event in the NBA at the time, and for fans, after half a season of gunsmoke, they also want to see a different side of the star. So, it's not just the players who need to relax their nerves and bodies, the fans as well.

The 2010 All-Star Game was won by Dallas. This is the second time in Dallas' history that the NBA All-Star Game has been held, and the last time was back in the '80s.

Just like hosting the Olympics, if hosting the Olympics is a celebration of a country, then the city that hosts the all-stars is a celebration. In addition to having a special sense of pride, the people here get an extra income from the crowd that swarms, and they are only responsible for making money, watching the games, arranging affairs, building stadiums, etc

Among the Timberwolves' squad of players, there are four players who need to participate in the All-Star Weekend: Love, Zheng Ke, Billups and Pekovic. In addition to the All-Star Game, Zheng Ke also needs to participate in the Slam Dunk Contest, and Billups needs to participate in the Three-Point Shooting Contest in addition to the All-Star Game. Love and Pekovic competed in the All-Star Weekend Rookie Challenge as second- and first-year players, respectively.

On the 10th, all the players who need to participate in the All-Star Weekend event arrived in Dallas, and under the arrangement of the organizers, everyone took a player photo shoot.

Unlike the previous ones who came here to fight, this time they came here with the mood of enjoyment. The same is true of Zheng Ke, who even spotted a very peculiar scene on the streets of Dallas – Nash's snubbing.

Nash was once the pride of the city, and Nowitzki. The troika formed by Finley was the foundation of the Mavericks' rise. And now things are wrong, Nash has also been voted Most Valuable Player twice in Phoenix, and has played against the Mavericks in the playoffs many times, and each time it is extremely miserable.

As a result, Zheng Ke found that on the streets of Dallas, from the airport to the city center, he did not see a single propaganda newspaper about Nash. Look into the eye. It's all the propaganda newspapers of Nowitzki and the Mavericks, James, Zheng Ke. Other players like Kobe Bryant also have some huge posters hanging on tall buildings, and the backup All-Stars have at least one or two posters. Even De Xiaopang, who is considered by Mavericks fans to have robbed Kidd of his position, is missing, except for Nash's propaganda newspaper.

Zheng Ke felt that he might be a little tired in the past few days, maybe he didn't see it?

11th. All-Star Weekend has officially begun. The first big event was the NBA Fan Carnival. This is a lively fan meeting where fans can enjoy a variety of games related to basketball. For example, people can find a 1:1 star drawing board of NBA players in it, and compare themselves and their idols up close; For example, people can make the most accurate physical fitness measurement here, and the instrument can help them complete their own switchback runs, run and touch other data, and get their own scouting report; Like what. One can find basketball hoops lined up in different heights. Everyone is seated in the right place, find the basket that suits them, and complete the dunk that can only be thought about once; For example, people can meet up with their friends and play a game of basketball that has recently become very popular - 2K10 with their friends with their handles in the video game area

It's the biggest fan entertainment center and the liveliest spot for All-Star Weekend. As far as the eye can see, there are crowds of people everywhere wearing the different colors of the jerseys of each team, holding basketballs.

The basketball carnival lasted about five days, almost throughout the entire All-Star Weekend. Before the official game before the night came, it was really good to help the fans pass the time.

Stars who participate in the NBA All-Star Game usually bring their families to the game, and in their eyes, this weekend is more of a vacation, although there is a game. Zheng Ke is the same, Taylor holds little Zheng Shuang, Zheng's father and Zheng's mother, Taylor's younger brother and parents all accompany him to the grand event in Dallas. The size of the team is huge, which is relatively rare in Zheng's words. Although he himself comes to Dallas several times a year, Dallas is a very new city for others

The 12th was the start of the official game, and at the rookie challenge in the evening, many of the stars who participated in the All-Star Game also came to the arena.

"Although I didn't make the All-Star Game, it wasn't too much to win the MVP of the Rookie Challenge." Lefu sat next to Zheng Ke and chatted with Zheng Ke with each other.

"Maybe, but you've got to be statistic and win."

"As long as I have playing time, the data will naturally come up, and when the time comes, I will brush up on a dozen or twenty rebounds, break a record, and win the MVP, isn't it easy to get the MVP?" Lefu's little abacus was played very carefully, and Zheng Ke looked at him like that, not like he was joking.

Zheng Ke couldn't hit him well, pursed his lips and said, "Then grab more rebounds." ”

At this time, there were exclamations from the audience. Zheng Ke and Lefu stopped talking, and when they looked up, it turned out that Beasley and others played a game of dunk in the warm-up game.

Lefu smashed his mouth, with some disdain on his face: "I just know that I love it, and I'll see what you do if you lose later." ”

"That's right." Zheng Keda smiled, patted Lefu on the shoulder, and said: "I just wanted to say, this year's first-year players are not weak, and several rookies are growing very rapidly, without Rose, I feel that you have to kneel!" ”

Zheng Ke's expression like a prophetic emperor frightened Lefu, and then said with a sad face: "No, I'm just talking casually, after all, if we fight for another year, how can we lose?" "Hey, hey." Zheng Ke smiled and said nothing, can I tell you that I can tell the player's ability value at a glance?

Among the first-year players, Curry, Jennings, and Evans have a very high rating, Evans actually reached 81, which is almost a quasi-All-Star, and on the inside, Blair's rebounding rating is also 99, and only Love can compete with him in the second grade. Judging from the books, although the second year has more than one year of experience, but the high-end combat power is extremely similar, in such a game, the most decisive moment is often the ethereal feeling, to put it bluntly, whoever can score three points in a row can win.

The game was as Zheng Ke expected, and the two sides played anxiously at the beginning, at least the score was anxious. They are also familiar with the unspoken rules of the NBA, and there are very few fouls with great action, and usually once the three-point shot has a chance, these players will not go to the defense, but watch them shoot.

So in all kinds of violent buckles and fancy action renderings, the atmosphere of the scene was extremely warm. In the second quarter, Lefu also had the opportunity to perform a big man's European step, and after breaking in, he played a coquettish folding layup, which stunned Zheng Ke, and he hurriedly stood up and applauded his little brother. Zheng Ke's personable appearance was immediately captured by the on-site camera, and Lefu ran over when he retreated, high-fived Zheng Ke in celebration, and it seemed that he was very excited to complete such an attack.

At halftime, DeRozan and Gordon had a heads-up before the dunk contest. DeRozan's first shot was a pull-up back dunk after passing the frame, and Gordon opted for a big windmill dunk after hitting the board. But DeRozan was a one-time success, and Gordon tried many times in a row, and finally chose this relatively simple move. DeRozan's second shot was a 45-degree diagonal cut into the belly of the dunk, Gordon chose to make a match with Mayo, received Mayo's pass and turned 180 degrees to dunk the backhand, this time, Gordon and Mayo failed to cooperate twice, and the third time it was scored. Perhaps the problem came here, with the audience voting more for the one-time success of DeRozan, making him the fourth player to participate in the slam dunk contest.

The second half was still scorching, but the defensive intensity changed significantly, and Westbrook was in good form, scoring 13 points in a row.

Jennings made back-to-back juggling-like pull-up layups that caught a lot of eyeballs. Blair was in a brave state, he just knocked away Lefou, completed the dunk in the front court, and he even played a breakthrough by himself, and completed a 2+1 when he lost his balance, which made the audience give him warm applause.

10 minutes before the end, the first-year 100-86 took the lead in breaking the 100-point mark.

The first-year players are getting less and less face-saving for their seniors, and they are playing hard, with Evans completing consecutive directional passes, slipping the baseline and completing pull-up layups to pay tribute to Mr. Penny. He said that his idol is a penny, and both are from the University of Memphis, and now he can reach the level of 20+5+5 in his rookie season, which is amazing, and he sighs that there is a successor to Anfernee Hardaway

Then the second grade also had a small 8-0 climax, but the first grade was generally in better shape. Curry, Evans and Jennings shot from the perimeter and set the score at 140 to 128 through a series of suffocating three-pointers.

Lefou's sad baby still didn't get his wish, and the MVP of the Rookie Challenge was shared by Evans and Blair. The two men made history by becoming the first player to share an MVP at the NBA Rookie Challenge. One had 22 points, 23 rebounds and four assists, and one had 26 points, six rebounds, five assists and five steals. (To be continued......)
